What SpotOn Kiosk is
SpotOn Kiosk lets restaurant guests place and pay for their own orders, with the kiosk connected directly to SpotOn POS. Menus, prices, modifiers and inventory updates stay aligned in real time, and items marked unavailable in the POS disappear from kiosks automatically. Orders can go directly to a kitchen display system or kitchen printer. Built-in suggestions can offer add-ons or upgrades during ordering. Hardware options include freestanding and countertop kiosks, and the kiosk page also lists a PAX A35 payment terminal. SpotOn positions self-service kiosks particularly for counter-service restaurants that have long lines at peak times. The add-on requires SpotOn POS and costs $60 a month, plus hardware costs. SpotOn describes its POS hardware as proprietary, secured and closed-system, designed for its own software. It does not provide an open API, instead working with handpicked software providers. Fresh KDS is listed among its KDS, kiosk and menu-board integrations. SpotOn says third-party software fees may apply, along with a possible small monthly marketplace access fee outside the Core Bundle.
